    My husband and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and our meal and beers… The only thing I would change is that next time I would be asked to sit downstairs. The bar is beautiful!.. hopefully we’ll eat here again when we’re back next year.

    We were looking for traditional Belgian food in a relaxed setting and this was perfect. The staff was friendly and the food was excellent. We started with mussels for the table. (Definitely get the cream, white wine, and garlic.) For my entree I had the rabbit stew with frites. The Kriek beer was prominent in the sauce but not overpowering. The frites were the best we’ve had yet. Very lively, unpretentious atmosphere which was just right after a day of walking around the city. I highly recommend.

    Great atmosphere, both inside and outside. Service was very attentive and we appreaciated the choice of the drink list. We tried mussels and fish of the day. Both dishes were very good. Definetely recommended!

    the food was great, however, we had to pay for bread (that we did not ask for) and sauces had also an additional cost.

    Nice place, with a good atmosphere and friendly staff. The mussels were fantastic. Would definitely recommend. The sauce for the rabbit was a little sweet. An unusual taste, but not unpleasant. Overall very good

    The Flemish beef stew was amazing. Beer was great and sufficiently chilled. Ambience was rustic and cosy, staff were cheerful and attentive.

    The "location" is very nice, in front of the Tower. The staff is somehow "husty", but after all no major concern here. The real issue is that I had a steak with some green pfeffer sauce, and during the night I experienced a serious sickness, which obliged me in bed until late in the morning after, when I had to move due a booked flight. I understand things like this may happen, yet I feel obliged to report

    Service was professional and swift, and the food was pretty good - burgers were particularly tasty though fries were not up to the best Belgian standards. Overall, a good, casual place close to Midi.

    Amazing food, great service with fast and so polite waiters, beautiful place. Only thing is that the tables are kind of too near to each other
